CARLSBAD  WITH  LITHIA. 

By  diluting  Double  and  Quadruple  Carlsbad 
with  one  volume  of  hot  water,  warm  Efferves- 
cent Sprudel  and  Double  Sprudel  art*  obtain- 
ed, thus  obviating  the  use  of  unreliable  salts, 
whether  crystallized,  pulverized,  or  in  pills. 

Carlsbad  lx.'ing  an  acknowledged  remedy  in 
certain  forms  of  Gout,  the  importance  of 
Carlsbad  with  I.ithia  cannot  be  overestimated. 

THE  COMPLETE  ANALYSIS  OF  EACH

NEW  YORK  ATHLETIC  CLUB. 


Pole-vaulting  Sport,  to  Try  Man's  Nerve. 


Contests  at  pole-vaulting,  on  account  of  the  qualities  of  agility, 
strength  and  nerve  the  game  requires,  are  always  among  the  most  popu- 
lar events  with  the  spectators  at  athletic  meetings. 

Most  people,  unless  a  mad  dog  were  after  them,  would  have  a  great 
deal  of  hesitation  about  even  dropping  off  an  elevation  ten  or  eleven  feet, 
no  matter  how  soft  the  alighting-place  might  be.  Your  expert  pole-vaulter, 
however,  makes  no  bones  about  such  a  trifle.  With  his  long,  steel-point- 
ed pole  grasped  firmly  in  his  hands,  he  comes  dashing  toward  the  up- 
rights, with  the  crossbar  high  above  the  ground;  the  steel  tip  is  planted 
in  the  ground,  the  athlete  makes  a  great  spring,  and,  with  a  whoop  and 
a  rush,  up  and  over  he  goes.  Often  he  comes  down  on  the  loosened  soil 
on  his  feet.  That  is  easy.  Sometimes  he  comes  down  on  the  hard  ground 
at  one  side  of  or  beyond  the  prepared  spot.  Then  he  feels  as  if  his  spinal 
column  had  been  driven  through  the  crown  of  his  head. 

Or,  maybe,  the  pole  breaks.  In  that  case,  also,  he  may  alight  on  his 
feet.  But  the  chances  are  greatly  against  such  good  fortune.  The  two 
athletes  under  whom  I  saw  poles  break,  struck  as  squarely  as  the  struct- 
ure of  the  human  body  permits,  on  their  necks.    They  are  both  alive,

Dear  Sirs—  There  can  be  no  doubt  as  to  the  sustain- 
ing power  of  the  C  hocolate.  I  satisfied  myself  of  that  on 
Saturday  afternoon,  riding  strongly  in  a  race  six  hours 
after  a  meal,  having  taken  nothing  meanwhile  but  a  small 
piece  of  Kola  Chocolate.       Yours  truly,

late was  of  the  greatest  assistance  in  securing  the  York  to

The  renewed  energy  after  taking  is  simply  mar- 
velous.   

Mr.  Harold  Godden.  Woodstock,  6th  June. 

I  may  inform  you  that  I  have  been  a  cyclist  for  18 
years,  and  have  tried  all  kinds  of  things,  but  not  one  is 
a  patch  on  Kola  Chocolate. 


Miss  Bkady,  Barmoor  Lodge,  Kirby  Moorside, 
will  be  much  obliged  if  Messrs.  Christy  will  send  her 
two  more  boxes  of  the  Kola  Lozenges,  as  she  finds  them

though;  and,  what  is  more,  still  vaulting.  There  gets  to  be,  after  a  while, 
a  certain  exhilaration  in  this  taking  your  life  in  your  hand,  poising  grace- 
fully with  it  away  up  in  the  air,  and  then  taking  your  chances  on  bringing 
it  back  to  terra  firma  with  you.  In  one  very  sad  case,  though,  at  Rutgers 
College,  New  Brunswick,  a  few  years  ago,  a  student  named  Scudder  lost 
his  life,  vaulting.  He  struck  the  crossbar,  which  broke  and  fell  under 
him.  One  of  the  pieces  struck  on  end,  and  poor  Scudder,  falling 
with  all  his  weight  squarely  upon  it,  was  impaled — the  sharp  point  pass- 
ing entirely  through  his  body.  He  died  after  a  few  hours  of  agony.  The 
bar  in  this  case  was  only  seven  and  one-half  feet  high. 

Alexander  Jordan,  the  New  York  Athletic  Club's  all-round  champion, 
and  the  winner  of  the  Herald's  all-round  Cup,  barely  escaped  the  same 
awful  fate  at  Washington,  at  the  national  championship  meeting  last  Oc- 
tober. The  bar  was  9  feet  9  inches  high  when  Jordan  tried  to  clear  it. 
The  pole,  which  he  had  never  before  tested,  was  untrue,  and  as  he  reach- 
ed the  highest  point,  it  shivered  and  splintered  almost  like  glass.  For- 
tunately, his  momentum  was  so  great  that,  though  he  struck  the  ground 
head  first,  he  cleared  most  of  the  pieces.  One  jagged  splinter,  however, 
ripped  his  close-fitting  Jersey  costume  for  six  inches,  and  tore  the  skin 
on  his  hips,  but  slightly.  The  soft  dirt  prevented  him  from  sustaining  a 
fracture  of  the  skull.  "  Alec's  "  exhibition  of  pluck  and  nerve,  when,  with 
his  thigh  bleeding,  his  eyes  and  ears  still  full  of  dirt,  and  while  the  five 
thousand  spectators  were  still  holding  their  breath,  he  seized  a  heavier 
pole  and  cleared  the  height  on  his  next  trial,  was  the  most  remarkable 
ever  seen  on  an  athletic  field. 

Since  1881,  when  he  competed  for  the  first  time  at  a  championship 
meeting,  there  has  been  no  American  vaulter  to  dispute  the  supremacy 
of  H.  H.  Baxter,  of  the  New  York  Athletic  Club,  at  this  game.  Baxter 
began  his  career  as  a  vaulter  in  rather  a  curious  manner.  He  used  to 
accompany  his  friend,  R.  H.  Sayre,  of  Columbia,  who  was  for  three  years 
the  intercollegiate  champion  walker,  to  the  old  Mott  Haven  grounds, 
where  the  latter  trained.  Sayre,  who  was  a  fair  high  jumper  as  well,  in- 
duced Baxter  to  try  jumping,  too.  When  the  bar  was  at  a  height  which 
Sayre  was  satisfied  his  friend  could  not  clear,  Baxter  made  a  bet  with 
him  of  a  bottle  of  wine  that  he  could  get  over  it — not  stipulating,  how- 
ever, how  he  was  to  do  so.    Sayre,  who  suspected  nothing,  agreed,  but

was  much  disgusted  when  Baxter  took  up  a  vaulting-pole  and  announced 
his  intention  of  going  over  with  that.  He  got  the  "  double,  back-handed 
criss-cross,"  though,  for  after  half-a-dozen  unsuccessful  trials,  he  fell 
against  the  standards  with  such  force  that  he  almost  broke  his  ribs.  As 
for  Sayre,  he  has  not  ceased  to  enjoy  the  bottle  of  wine  yet.  But  the 
result  of  the  wager  was  a  champion — for  Baxter  has  practiced  vaulting 
from  that  day  to  this  with  unvarying  success. 

Baxter  made  his  first  try  for  a  championship  medal  in  1881.  He  vault- 
ed 10  feet  3  inches,  thereby  taking  second  to  W.  J.  Van  Houten,  of  the 
Scottish-American  Athletic  Club,  who  at  that  time  held  the  record  at  10 
feet  1 1  inches.  The  following  year  the  championship  was  won  by  B.  F. 
Richardson,  a  club-mate  of  Van  Houten,  who  cleared  10  feet.  Later  in 
the  fall  Baxter  defeated  all  the  best  men  in  a  scratch  contest  at  Boston. 

The  championship  meeting  of  1883  resulted  in  the  hardest  fought 
contest  ever  known  at  the  game.  A  dozen  athletes  competed,  six  of 
whom  cleared  10  feet.  The  bar  was  then  placed  at  10  feet  6  inches,  and 
Van  Houten,  Richardson,  Baxter  and  Harry  Toler,  of  Princeton,  the  in- 
tercollegiate champion  and  record-holder,  succeeded  in  getting  over.  At 
10  feet  9  inches  everybody  failed  twice,  but  on  the  third  trial  Baxter  suc- 
ceeded in  getting  over,  while  the  others  again  missed.  This  gave  the 
New  York  Athletic  Club  man  the  championship.  He  wasn't  satisfied  yet, 
though.  So  the  bar  was  placed  at  1 1  feet  i  inch,  and  Baxter,  clearing 
this  height  also,  broke  the  best  previous  record  by  i1/^  inches.

NEW  YORK  ATHLETIC  CLUB. 


In  1884  Baxter  again  won  the  American  championship,  and,  in  addi- 
tion, secured  the  Canadian  championship.  He  won  again  at  New  York 
in  1885,  and  the  following  year  repeated  his  double  win  of  1884. 

In  1887  a  team  of  English  athletes,  among  whom  was  Tom  Ray,  of 
the  Ulverstone  (England)  Cricket  and  Football  Club,  visited  this  coun- 
try. Ray  took  part  at  the  championship  meeting  that  year,  and  beat 
both  Baxter  and  his  record.    Ray's  vault  was  11  feet  finch. 

On  October  8,  at  Elkton,  Md.,  Baxter  raised  the  record  to  11  feet  4 
inches.  When  he  read  the  papers  next  morning  to  see  what  they  had  to 
say  about  his  performance,  he  was  surprised  and  chagrined  to  find  that 
at  Philadelphia  less  than  half  an  hour  after  his  own  record-breaking  per- 
formance, Ray  had  vaulted  11  feet  4-3-  inches.  One  week  later  Baxter 
again  took  the  lead,  clearing  1 1  feet  5  inches  at  the  New  York  Athletic 
Club  games  at  Mott  Haven.  This  performance  still  constitutes  the  best 
American  record.  In  February,  1889,  in  the  N.  Y.  A.  C.  gymnasium, 
Baxter  did  11  feet  3  inches,  which,  considering  the  limited  length  of  the 
run  the  size  of  the  gymnasium  affords,  was  really  a  more  meritorious  per- 
formance than  the  other. 

The  style  of  vaulting  that  Ray  practices  is  entirely  different  from 
the  American,  and  suggests  rather  the  balancing  feats  of  the  gymnasium 
than  out-door  athletics.  As  a  means  of  attaining  height  simply,  it  is 
certainly  a  better  style  than  Baxter's.  It  does  not,  however,  afford  the 
same  scope  for  the  all-round  athletic  qualities  required  by  the  American 
method.  To  vault  as  Baxter  does  one  requires  the  spring  of  the  high 
jumper  and  the  speed  of  the  sprinter  and  above  the  waist  the  development

of  the  gymnast.  The  Englishman,  it  would  appear,  has  need  only  of  de- 
velopment of  the  upper  part  of  the  body. 

Baxter  usually  takes  a  run  of  about  forty  yards  when  vaulting.  He 
starts  slowly,  but  at  the  take-off  is  running  at  top  speed.  He  holds  the 
pole — which  is  of  ash,  and  nearly  two  inches  in  diameter  at  its  thickest 
part — with  the  palms  facing  each  other,  the  right  hand  being  eighteen 
inches  or  two  feet  above  the  other.  The  lower  hand  grasps  the  pole  a 
little  below  the  height  of  the  bar  which  is  to  be  cleared.  To  the  eye  it 
appears  that  the  steel  point  of  the  pole  is  fixed  in  the  ground  and  the 
spring  made  simultaneously.  Really,  though,  the  athlete  jumps  first,  and 
plants  the  pole  as  he  begins  to  rise.  As  the  pole  nears  the  perpendicu- 
lar, the  vaulter,  who  holds  himself  perfectly  rigid,  raises  the  body.  The 
moment  the  pole  is  in  the  vertical  position  he  swings  the  body,  by  strength 
of  the  big  muscles  of  the  back  and  arms,  horizontally  across  the  bar.  As 
he  does  this  he  turns  so  that  he  faces  the  bar.  A  final  push  is  given 
against  the  pole  to  throw  it  back  and  keep  it  from  displacing  the  bar, 
and  then  the  lower  hand  is  jerked  up  and  over.  Very  often'  there  is  just 
an  instant's  delay,  and  then  the  left  hand,  which  is  the  last  part  of  the 
body  to  go  over,  will  knock  down  the  bar. 

As  Baxter  depends  for  the  force  of  his  rise  more  on  his  speed  at  the 
take-off  than  anything  else,  his  vaulting  is  manifestly  affected  by  the  con- 
dition of  the  track.  A  muddy  path  or  an  adverse  wind  will  make  a  dif- 
ference in  his  performance  of  from  three  to  twelve  inches. 

Neither  wind  nor  track,  however,  have  any  great  effect  on  Ray — the 
Englishman  trusting  but  little  to  his  speed  to  get  over  the  bar.  On  the 
contrary,  he  runs  toward  the  take-off  quite  slowly.  Instead  of  placing 
his  left  or  lower  hand  ten  or  eleven  feet  from  the  end  of  the  pole,  as  Bax- 
ter does,  he  takes  hold  where  the  latter  would  for  a  vault  of  8  feet  6 
inches.  His  rise  is  characterized  by  none  of  Baxter's  rush;  but  as  the 
pole  is  poised  he  slips  the  lower  hand  quickly  against  the  upper,  raises 
the  latter  half  a  foot,  and  again  slipping  up  the  left,  continues  this  proc- 
ess half  a  dozen  times,  or  until  the  pole  gets  off  its  balance.  At  the  last 
possible  moment  he  draws  up  the  body  with  a  jerk  and  swings  himself 
over;  but,  unlike  Baxter,  with  his  back  toward  the  bar. 

To  afford  better  advantages  for  this  balancing  feat,  Ray  uses  a  pole 
shod,  not  with  a  single  point  like  Baxter's,  but  with  a  big  tripod.  Besides 
its  other  advantages,  there  is  a  smaller  chance  of  this  triple  point 
slipping;  nor  does  it  sink  two  or  three  inches  in  the  ground,  as  the  single 
point  does  when  the  ground  is  at  all  soft. 

In  the  fall  of  1889  E.  L.  Stones,  a  club-mate  and  pupil  of  Ray,  also 
came  to  this  country  in  search  of  athletic  glory.  He  had,  in  1888,  at 
Southport,  England,  slipped  his  hands  up  and  up  and  up  until  he  was 
high  enough  to  get  over  the  bar  at  1 1  feet  7  inches.  Fortunately  for  him, 
however,  Baxter  was  suffering  from  a  strained  arm,  received  from  a  bad 
fall  at  the  N.  Y.  A.  C.  games  in  the  summer,  and  was  unable  to  compete; 
otherwise  he  would  surely  have  beaten  the  Englishman,  who  appeared  to 
be  unable  to  get  into  good  form  in  this  country,  and  whose  vaulting  was 
very  indifferent. 

Shortly  after  Stoncs's  return  home  the  question  of  the  triple  point  for 
poles  came  up  before  the  Amateur  Athletic  Union,  and  a  rule  was  passed 
which  forbade  the  use  of  anything  else  than  the  straight  tip.  It  can  easily 
be  seen  that  without  any  restrictions  on  this  point,  a  pole  might  be  so

constructed  that  the  only  limit  to  the  height  which  the  athlete  could 
"  vault "  would  be  that  from  which  he  could  drop  to  the  ground  without 
injuring  himself. 

Mr.  Baxter  owes  his  success  in  athletics  to  some  natural  aptitude  for 
the  sport  he  has  made  his  specialty,  but  more  particularly  to  hard,  per- 
severing work.  He  never  enters  a  competition  unless  thoroughly  "  fit." 
Usually,  he  prefaces  his  work  of  preparing  for  a  contest  by  a  course  of 
all-round  gymnastics,  including  work  with  the  dumb-bells,  Indian  clubs 
and  chest  weights.  Then  he  begins  out  of  doors  with  running.  It  is  only 
when  every  muscle  is  in  good  condition  that  he  actually  begins  to  prac- 
tice vaulting.  He  practices  high  jumping  and  hurdling  as  well,  and  gives 
a  great  deal  of  time  to  sprinting.  In  practice,  he  never  vaults  more  than 
10  feet  6  inches,  or  1 1  feet,  preserving  his  greatest  efforts  for  competi- 
tions. As  the  game  is  one  which  does  not  require  prolonged  exertion, 
he  finds  it  unnecessary  to  pay  much  attention  to  the  question  of  dietetics, 
and  is  only  ordinarily  careful  about  what  he  eats. 

Ulverstone,  England,  the  home  of  Ray  and  Stones,  produced  several 
other  good  vaulters — notably  E.  Woodburn,  who  was  at  one  time  cham- 
pion of  England.  So  popular  did  the  game  become  in  that  town  through 
the  performances  of  these  three  champions,  that  the  boys  there  practiced 
no  other  sport.  They  had  no  fixed  season  for  the  game,  as  boys  in 
this  country  have  for  football  and  baseball;  but  the  whole  year  round 
would  run  and  vault  until  every  one  of  them  became  an  expert.  A  cer- 
tain philologist,  therefore,  has  surmised  that  the  phrase  we  hear  so  often 
in  this  city,  "  Ah  !  take  a  run  and  jump  up  in  the  air,"  might  have  orig- 
inated in  Ulverstone.  Walter  C.  Dohm.

"A  first-class  dressmaker  will  no  sooner 
make  a  dress  over  an  unsatisfactory  lining 
than  an  architect  will  build  a  house  over  an 
uncertain  ground-work.  If  my  friends  will 
always  ask  for  Gilbert  Dress  Linings  and  will 
look  for  this  name  on  the  selvage,  they 
will  never  be  disappointed.  I  give  this  informa- 
tion out  of  my  own  experience,  as  I  never  use 
any  other  linings,  and  consequently  know 
exactly  what  I  am  talking  atxiut." 


"The  complaints  concerning  the  stretching 
qualities  of  dress  linings  are  numerous.  There 
is  not  the  slightest  excuse  for  some  of  this 
growling,  for  when  women  will  buy  the  most 
expensive  material  for  the  outside  of  their 
gowns  and  the  cheapest  for  the  inside,  they 
have  no  right  to  expect  satisfactory  results. 
Do  away  with  these  complaints  and  buy  only 
Gilbert  Dress  Linings.

POND'S  EXTRACT 


Does  not  smart  nor  sting.  Reduces  redness.  Checks  bleed-

which  the  rasping  of  the  razor  has  drawn  near  the  surface,  so 
leaves  the  face  white,  soft,  and  smooth,  without  the  shininess 
caused  by  other  lotions.  For  this  purpose  far  superior  to  bay 
rum,  cologne,  or  perfumed  water.   Best  barbers  use  it.

A  MODEL  HORSE  MART. 

Tatikksalls  (of  New  York),  Limited. 


Everything  that  tends  to  the  protection  of  gentlemen  who  have  occasion  to  buy  or  to  sell  horses 
is  naturally  of  interest  to  a  very  large  class  of  New  Yorkers,  and  for  this  rca-on  the  establishment 
of  I'attersalls  (of  New  York),  Limited,  is  well  worth  more  than  a  casual  inspection.  On  another 
page  we  give  a  good  picture  showing  something  of  the  interior  of  the  beautiful  building,  at  55th 
Street  and  7th  Avenue,  in  this  city,  occupied  by  that  company  as  it-,  Sale  Repository.  •  Mlier  views 
have  been  made,  but  that  which  we  give,  supplemented  by  our  pen  picture,  following,  will  Ik-  suf- 
ficient to  send  many  ot  our  readers  to  see  for  themselves  the  most  complete  and  elegant  establish- 
ment of  its  kind  in  the  world. 

The  last  century  was  yet  young  when  the  house  of  Tattersall  was  founded  in  London,  and  from 
that  day  to  this  it  has  occupied  a  unique  position  in  its  business,  from  the  fact  that  it  h  1-  never  made 
a  mistake,  nor  has  any  one  doing  business  with  it  had  cause  for  dissatisfaction.  While  its  affairs 
have  grown  to  enormous  proportions,  and  its  fortunes  have  waxed  accordingly,  its  name  long  since 
became  a  synonym  for  business  probity  and  honorable  dealing. 

The  card  ilia!  principle  upon  which  its  transactions  are  based  is  that  it  is  simply  a  commission 
agency  to  brine  buyers  and  sellers  together,  and  that  it  therefore  does  not  in  any  way  deal  in  horses. 
It  allows  no  bidding  by  an  owner  or  any  agent,  at  absolute  sale,  and  when  reserve  prices  are  placed 
on  animals,  that  fact  is  fully  understood  by  everyone.  There  are  thus  no  sham  sales,  and  the  usual 
fear  of  being  swindled  in  a  horse  deal  is  entirely  removed. 

In  its  long  and  successful  career  every  conceivable  detail  or  practical  question  germane  to  its 
business  has  been  encountered,  and  its  system  has  thus  become  as  nearly  perfect  as  any  thing  mun- 
dane can  be, 

Tattersalls  (of  New  York),  Limited,  is  a  branch  company  of  the  famous  London  house,  and  the 
only  one  in  existence.  It  has  brought  to  New  York  the  same  principles  and  methods  .„  those  by 
which  the  parent  house  has  been  governed.  The  results  of  such  an  enterprise,  so  conducted,  cannot 
fail  to  establish  the  New  York  Company  very  quickly  in  the  esteem  and  confidence  of  the' Ameri- 
can people. 

i'he  Sale  Repository  above  mentioned  is  very  admirably  located,  where  animals  can  be  taken 
into  the  Park  without  encountering  the  elevated  trains.  It  is  a  vast  building,  octagonal  in  form 
the  mam  interior  affording  a  circular  ring  400  feet  in  circumference,  while  the  angles  cut  off,  to- 
gether  with  a  wing,  furnish  ample  room  for  offices,  private  rooms,  etc.  The  ground  floor  where 
sales  are  conducted,  and  horses  are  sold,  exhibited,  and  exercised,  is  brilliantly  lighted  by  dav  from 
the  lofty  glazed  dome,  and  by  night  by  electric  lights.  The  outer  circumference  affords  a  fine  show 
or  exercise  ring,  which  can  in  a  few  minutes  be  occupied  by  a  circle  of  box-stalls,  ingeniously  con- 
trived to  close  up  against  the  wall  when  not  required  for  use. 

The  second  and  third  floors  are  fitted  with  two  rows  of  stalls,  single  and  boxes,  the  latter  so 
constructed  that  in  case  of  emergency,  each  box  can  be  quickly  converted  into  two  single  stalls. 
Between  the  rows  of  stalls,  broad  corridors,  covered  with  cocoanut  malting,  extend.  In  every 
detail  and  appointment  the  best  and  most  approved  stable  methods  have  been  used.  The  upper 
floor  affords  storage  room  for  an  immense  number  of  vehicles  of  all  sorts. 

Although  the  place  affords  stabling  for  250  animals,  there  is  little  suggestion  of  a  huge  stable 
as  one  passes  in  through  the  handsome  entrance,  and  enters  the  ring  on  the  ground  floor.  Hand- 
somely finished  galleries,  which,  by  the  way,  are  carpeted  and  furnished  with  chairs,  run  around 
the  inside  of  each  floor,  and  with  the  skylight  overhead,  give  to  the  place  rather  the  appearance  of 
a  Roman  Amphitheatre,  than  of  a  prosaic  Auction  Mart,  an  illusion  that  is  heightened  by  the  grated 
doors  that  close  the  runways,  and  that  suggest  the  den  of  concealed  Lions  or  Tigers. 

In  the  offices  are  registers  showing  just  what  animal  is  in  ea.h  stall,  and  by  a  system  of  electric 
bells,  any  one  wanted  is  promptly  produced  in  the  ring. 

The  special  features  of  the  business  of  this  company  are.  of  course  the  sale  bv  auction,  or  pri- 
vately, of  all  classes  of  horses,  carriages,  saddlery,  etc.,  under  the  approved  methods  of  the  parent 
house  in  London.  To  make  this  enterprise  a  success,  the  company  does  not  rely  entirely  upon  its  fine 
building,  advantageous  location,  or  admirable  system,  but  seeks  in  every  way  to  make  its  establish- 
ment attractive  and  agreeable  to  those  who  hold  social  power,  and  to  remove  from  it  everything  of- 
fensive,so  far  as  this  is  possible. 

The  Managing  Director  is  Mr.  Wm.  Kaston,  long  and  favorably  known  to  the  horsemen  of  this 
country  in  this  line  of  business,  and  perhaps  more  widely  known  as  a  magnetic  and  wonderfully 
successful  auctioneer,  who  has  conducted  many  of  the  most  phenomenal  sales  ever  held,  and  who 
possesses  the  rare  faculty  of  making  so  dry  a  subject  as  an  auction  an  interesting  entertainment. 
The  Treasurer  of  the  company,  Mr.  Horace  Theobald,  is  well  known  in  England  and  in  this  coun- 
try as  an  unusually  erudite  horseman,  and  careful  business  manager.

EKELY  to  say  a  little  something  about  the 
Leonard  Split  Bamboo  Fishing  Rod.  Although 
these  rods  enjoy  the  reputation  of  being  the 
very  best  rod  made,  there  may  be  some  tilings 
about  them  that  you  have  not  heard. 

DO  YOU  KNOW  that  each  rod  is  made 
singly  and  separately  ? 

DO  YOU  KNOW  that  the  ferrules,  and  in 
fact  all  of  the  mountings,  are  of  the  very  high- 
est quality,  made  from  the  paw  material  on  the 
premises,  and  are  mandril  drawn,  thereby  in- 
suring a  degree  of  strength  that  it  is  impossible 
to  get  in  any  other  manner  ? 

DO  YOU  K  \OVV  that  all  of  the  strips  and 
joints  are  fitted  and  balanced  with  a  care  resul- 
ting from  an  experience  of  thirty-five  years? 
DO  roll  KNOW  that  each  Leonard  Rod  is 
guaranteed  absolutely  perfect  in  workmanship  and  material  ? 

If  you  have  never  examined  a  "Leonard  "  closely,  call  in  and  we  will  take 
pleasure  in  showing  you  their  points  of  superiority  over  any  and  all  other  roils.

of  it:  "I  have  made  a  practical 
test  of  your  stop  watch,  and  it 
is  certainly  the  most  convenient 
and  reliable  watch  I  have  tried. 
Before  using  the  watch  in  the 
Harvard  -  Princeton  match  in 
1888,  I  tested  it  for  time-keep 
ing  qualities,  and  found  it  'on 
the  dot.'  It  has  my  most  hearty 
recommendation. "
